Overview

• The Justice Department published the transcript and audio of Ghislaine Maxwell’s July 24–25 interviews with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
• Maxwell says she never saw President Trump act inappropriately and describes him as a gentleman.
• She denies knowing of any Epstein “client list” and says she does not believe Epstein died by suicide in prison.
• The House oversight committee received more than 33,000 pages of records that will be released only after sensitive information and victim identifiers are removed.
• Critics question the interview’s conduct due to Blanche’s ties to Trump and the lack of visible FBI participation, and federal judges have recently refused to unseal related grand jury materials.
